Book Description
Heterodox stabilization programs are more successful in chronic high inflation countries because only there can the benefits from achieving a rapid initial reduction in inflation outweigh the costs of tampering with price and wage controls. While the heterodox phase is effective in blocking inflation initially, success depends on a long- term commitment to the orthodox part of the program and the readiness to accept the unavoidable costs of disinflation.

Rethinking Heterodox Economics
Author: Serkan Künü
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1036408973
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 311
Book Description
Contrary to traditional economic theories, heterodox approaches recognize the multidimensional nature of economic phenomena and acknowledge the influence of historical, psychological, social, and political factors. They address issues such as heterodox economics, income and gender inequality, environmental sustainability, financial crises, and the role of authority in shaping economic outcomes and offer a broader perspective for understanding the complexity of economic systems and their impact on human well-being. The book aims to help economists and economics students who want to critically examine the hypothetical presuppositions of traditional economics and to understand the complexities of the economic world more deeply understand the basic principles of heterodox economics and offer a new perspective in the discipline of economics. In the book, 23 academics working in different disciplines came together and contributed to 16 chapters with different perspectives. Each chapter aims to provide a scientific and original contribution to the literature by addressing different aspects of heterodox economics within the framework of its discipline.

Price Controls and Electoral Cycles
Author: Pierre-Richard Agénor
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN: 1451851227
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 24
Book Description
This paper studies the interactions between electoral considerations and the imposition of price controls by opportunistic policymakers. The analysis shows that a policy cycle emerges in which price controls are imposed in periods leading to the election, and removed immediately afterwards. The shape of the cycle is shown to depend on the periodicity of elections, the relative weight attached by the public to inflation as opposed to the macroeconomic distortions associated with price controls, the nature of wage contracts, and the degree of uncertainty about the term in office.
